Characterization of the sperm factor responsible for initiating [calcium (2+)](i) oscillations during fertilization in mammalian eggs
During fertilization the sperm activates the mammalian egg by eliciting [Ca2+]i oscillations. However, how the sperm triggers [Ca2+]i oscillations in mammalian eggs remains unknown. To test the possibility that a factors) from the sperm is able to elicit [Ca 2+]i oscillations, sperm fractions (facto...
